There are 2 addresses (to send the application to) indicated on the CIC website. A Recipient address and a 'Courier' address. What's the difference and which one should I use? Is any one of them more preferred over the other?

Recipient (centre of the envelope)
Case Processing Centre – Sydney
Grant Adults
P.O. Box 7000
SYDNEY, NS
B1P 6V6

Courier address:
Case Processing Centre, Sydney
Grant Adults
49 Dorchester Street
Sydney, Nova Scotia
B1P 5Z2

it's pretty self explanatory, one for sending as regular mail and another for sending through courier (fedex, ups, purolator, etc). obviously the courier is recommended because a) it reaches way quicker, usually in a day or two b) you will get a receipt and tracking number from the company by which you can check if your application was received by CIC. keep that receipt till the application is complete, in case you need to prove that you sent an application.
